Our Board
PREPARE developed out of Second Chance for Women, which was founded by Maryjoel Davis. It was relaunched as PREPARE in June 2021. An individual’s journey towards release and a successful reentry is necessarily a collaborative process. The work of PREPARE therefore engages many different people:
Co-Founder of PREPARE, Board Member Emerita
President of the Board, Retired Captain in the United States Coast Guard
Vice-President of the Board
Treasurer of the Board
Co-Founder and Director of Parole
Secretary of the Board
Retired Maryland Parole Commissioner

Former Warden of the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women
